Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either tamsulosin plus tadalafil or tamsulosin plus a matching placebo. Study medication will start within 24 hours after catheterization. The catheter will be removed on Day 7. If the first trial without catheter fails, the catheter will be reinserted and a second rescue trial without catheter will be performed on Day 14. The main o
